@Wonka It is fun. As long as I stay in the open source community. Could never do it as a career. All the stupid rules will start to drive me crazy.

@jalcine Thank you. You just reminded me of the PeerTube Server and Funkwhale server I need to host, as well. I need to get Inspiration Soundworks off of Soundcloud.

Yo so let's say we didn't centralize a whole bunch of shit. Like

GitHub -> code (Go relies on GitHub to be up to serve deps)

YouTube -> people use this for daily content consumption

Spotify, Pandora -> music

et al.

How would we "discover" content? Do we truly "discover" anything or is the highly trafficked stuff just shown to us?

@mjog@octodon.social Can I ask a question, then? How do you then get the news from venders and organizations you follow? Most of the stuff happening in the techisphere, for instance, is on Twitter. I could use RSS, though that's a read-only means of retrieving information.

@kaniini @dansup @mattbk I've never been much of a fan of anything Adobe's put out; never mind their programming applications. They eventually stopped supporting ASP.net, you know, in its very early days, mind you. And ASP.NET's always been free to learn. More so now with .NET core coming around; wonder if they rethunk that?

@dansup @mattbk yeah right, the real pixelfed is written in Adobe ColdFusion, that's just some scam PHP thing

I'm no mathematician. In fact, I didn't achieve much better than a 75 in math most of my high school life, and In college? Don't even talk to me about that. I got a C in my only computer science class I ever took.

I'm still trying to rap my head around the convertTo expression in C#; thank Gods the book I'm learning from is finally deciding to offer real examples … the mathematical examples make my freaking head spin around and around. Not sure whether that's a very nasty jab at programming; either @jdormit@mastodon.technology or @freemo can fill me in on that?

@kaniini LOL. I get that now. Just talking to the world in General. I do that.

@mjog@octodon.social I have one, but I don't use it. I much prefer Mastodon, or Pleroma (I've do away with Twitter if most of the newsfeeds weren't there.)

@kaniini Is this in relationship to something else on the fediverse I missed?

this is interesting, because i think everything you just said is bullshit
